Now, back to the pickguard...how should I cut it?

You can probably use all sorts of things like dremels or even a router, if you're comfortable with them.

Personally I mark the outline, drill holes close together all around the inside of it, then cut the main chunk of plastic out with a Stanley knife.  Then I use files and sandpaper.  It's very slow but the end result is neat!

Stanley knife and a metal ruler, fine grained sandpaper or wetndry on a flat surface or suitable file. No need to go nuts with power tool, its just a scratch plate.
